Family DYTISCIDAE (Coleoptera)

The taxonomic diversity of the IKIP Dytiscidae holdings currently consists of 13 species in 10 genera. A check-list of these taxa, arranged alphabetically, is provided below and the islands on which they were collected, from south to north, is given in brackets (the islands are designated by two-letter Island Codes). All determinations were made by Dr. Anders Nillson (see IKIP COLEOPTERA REPORT).
